Una pietra da scultura nel basso Monferrato casalese? Studio sull'uso immemorabile, e per certi versi sorprendente, della Pietra da Cantoni
No full textI borghi del Monferrato casalese sono caratterizzati da suggestive architetture in Pietra da cantoni. Nel tempo, architetture e paesaggio si sono fusi in un insieme armonico ed equilibrato, all'interno del quale oggi la pietra è protagonista. Mediante una ricerca multidisciplinare, è in corso di realizzazione una banca dati regionale sui materiali lapidei impiegati, messi in rapporto con le corrispondenti aree di estrazione storicamente utilizzate. Queste ultime sono ben differenziabili nelle due fasi storiche di uso della pietra, l'età medievale della pietra da scultura e l'epoca ottocentesca dei cantoni. La fase recente, il cui apice è il XIX secolo, manifesta un fenomeno che resta prevalentemente confinato nell'ambito locale del basso Monferrato casalese. Al contrario, la fase più antica, nell'intorno dei secoli dal XII al XIV, si rivela tanto interessante quanto inattesa, proprio perché vede coinvolta buona parte dell'odierno territorio piemontes
Movements of the cultural landscape of Asti around the ancient churches
Get PDFThe abandonment of the Romanesque chapels nearby Asti, today often isolated in the countryside, allowed the partial conservation of the original structures by protecting the ancient churches against the complete rebuilding, although, before being abandoned, they could have lived a time of occasional liturgy as well as of recovery as aristocratic churches. We want to outline the changes connected to the inhabitants’ relocation, a trend identified in the area of Asti since the XIII century. We want to compare the modernization applied to such architectures between the XIV and XV Century, when the apsis were renewed and frescoed. Our in-depth analysis will cross historical, architectural and cultural disciplines of the rock, reporting traditional sources and sources of matter. The news emerged so far are interesting: they connect laical creation and initiative, especially of the landlords, and reveal adaptations made leaving the heritage of the past unaltered

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Get PDF“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Get PDFWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
